ls1 swaps

There is someone in my area selling an ls-1 engine for pretty cheap. My question is "What kind of cars can you swap this engine into?" What kind of cars can you get for cheap and put this engine into?
Can you put this engine in a Datsun 280ZX? And if you can, what are the repercussions of having a heavier engine in front?
I'm thinking about buying this engine because it is a good deal, but I honestly have no idea of what to swap it into or how much work this will be. This engine is the 5.7 L, V8 that is found in the newer corvettes and Camaro SSs, right?
Which cars would the swap be the easiest or the cheapest?
